Bought these as a replacement for my strut brace as I wanted better access to the engine. Well made product and very easy to install (Took me 10 min to remove brace and install these)
This is a review of the M12 stud conversion kit for the R53 MINI Cooper S. This is the second stud kit that I have installed. The first set was of much lessor quality and was totally worn out within six years of auto-x, track days and winter tire change-over.
These new studs appear to be far superior and slightly longer. I also like the unthreaded portion that allows lining up the nut to help prevent cross threading.
I do have one question; Do you recommend any using any lubrication on the threads of the studs?

Ordered the rear set delete kit (with the seat belt hole option) planning on using it as a platform for my dogs instead of having the enter through the door and sit on the rear seat. After reading through the install procedures and prepping the car for install I noticed that there is only one bolt securing the delete kit. This may be ok for weight reduction but it not good for use with pets.

I have been putting a r56 mini back together for 2 weeks now after a timing chain failure.Have had nothing but problems finding and getting parts until I contacted Aaron at Outmotoring! All my problems are over ! Thank You
I wanted to de-chrome the belt line of my BRG R56. A black belt line looks nice but is so common. I ordered the red kit from OutMotoring and it didn’t disappoint. High quality 3M automotive vinyl. Fast service. Thanks OM!
Advantages: Easy to install. High quality
Disadvantages: Obviously takes some finesse to do it right. But there is enough extra on the roll if you need to re-do a panel.
